My skincare has niacinamide in it and I've been using it daily since before I got to know I'm pregnant. Now thoda confused whether to continue or stop. Anyone used it during pregnancy without any issue?
Having PCOS made my skin so unpredictable, and pregnancy hormones made it worse. I wanted to try niacinamide too but was too scared to mess up my skin or harm the baby. I slowly introduced it only after my doctor gave a clear green light.
Hey, don't stress too much about these skin care rules! Niacinamide is generally very gentle and safe, unlike retinol. Just stick to basic, mild brands and you will be absolutely fine, trust me.
My mother-in-law suggested using fresh sandalwood paste for any skin dullness during these months. But my skin got very dry, so I asked my doctor about niacinamide. She told me low concentration is totally fine, but always better to confirm with your own gynac first.
Honestly, skin care ingredients can be so confusing. Even if it says safe on Google, every pregnancy is different. Just show the brand to your gynac in your next visit before applying it.
With office and pregnancy tiredness, my skin looked so dull. I didn't have time for ghar ke nuskhe like ubtan, so I just used a mild niacinamide moisturizer. It worked well for me, but do a quick patch test and ask your doctor.
Beta, chemical skin care is okay but during pregnancy try to use natural things. My MIL always told me to use besan and malai for face glow. But if you really want to use this niacinamide, just ask your doctor once to be safe.
Actually, I became super paranoid after my loss and stopped all serum products completely. Even though people say it is safe, I did not want to take any tiny risk. Please check with your gynac before putting anything on your skin, dear.
